Does anyone no if the igniter that comes with the EI kit can be tested to see if its defective? With a meter or something? Thanks, Wayne

If you are talking about the coil, check ohms across the + and -. Set meter to the 20 ohms scale or something close. You should read the same resistance that is indicated by coil's manufacturer. I have a flame thrower II which is a 0.6 ohm coil.
